Where knowledge lives
← Compare RAG deployment models
Enterprise RAG / On-premise RAG
On-premise and air-gapped RAG for maximum control.
Run retrieval, vector search, model inference, and governance inside your own controlled environment—including isolated networks where no external internet access is permitted.

How it operates
Your organisation owns the infrastructure and platform operation, with specialist support where it is useful.
Best fit
Banks, healthcare, government, defence, and critical infrastructure organisations where data sovereignty is non-negotiable.
What runs where
A RAG system designed around the boundary that matters.
Private GPU clusters, self-hosted vector databases, and locally hosted language models can sit within existing security boundaries.

Why teams choose this route
Advantages to use deliberately.
- Maximum control over data, models, and network boundaries
- Can operate in private or air-gapped environments
- Fits established identity, security, and audit requirements
Controls to plan
Trust needs operational evidence.
- Integrate with IAM, LDAP, or Active Directory
- Use encryption, audit trails, and role-based source access
- Plan GPU capacity, patching, evaluation, and model lifecycle operations
Choose with confidence
Architecture should support the work, not become the work.
We can help you turn a business use case, information boundary, and control requirement into a practical RAG delivery plan.
